Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for stopping and interrupting the flow in a pipe.
  • valves or gate valves are in use for stopping and interrupting the flow in a pipe. These generally comprise a body in which are formed two ports into which lead the two sections of pipe whose flow is to be stopped and interrupted. In a cavity essentially perpendicular to the ports is a movable member, normally displaced by a screw control member so as to cover or open the two ports as the case may be.
  • the movable member consists for example of a wedge or of a round-tipped frustum of a cone of rigid material, e.g. pressed brass, in some cases coated with an elastomer having the function of a seat.
  • the elastomer layer is applied by processes such as thermoforming or vulcanization and therefore the movable member and the elastomer material form a single body.
  • Another object of the invention is to produce such a device in which replacement of the seal, when necessary, is rapid and can be carried out without the use of tools.
  • the device basically comprises: a body with an internal cavity; a shutoff member which is movable along an axial direction of displacement in said internal cavity; and at least two fluid passage ports opened in walls of said cavity that are inclined to the direction of displacement of the shutoff member.
  • the shutoff member comprises sealing means for the closure of said ports, with sealing surfaces inclined to the direction of displacement.
  • the shutoff member comprises a first substantially rigid inner part to which said sealing means are fitted in such a way as to be able to slide relative to the inner part, said inner part and said sealing means being in mutual contact on sliding surfaces inclined to said direction of displacement.
  • the seal is made of elastomeric material and is able to slide relative to the shutoff member, so that during the closure of the stop device the shutoff member drives the sealing means until they engage with means of arrest formed in the cavity of the body and, as the closure movement of the shutoff member continues, the inner part slides relative to the sealing means, causing compression of said seating means against said ports. This avoids generating large axial stresses and eliminates shearing and torsional forces in the material of the sealing means.
  • the movement along the direction of displacement of the inner part of the shutoff member sets up repulsive compressive forces, i.e. directed from the axis of the shutoff member toward the ports.
  • the repulsive compressive forces squeeze the sealing surfaces against the inclined walls of the inner cavity of the body in which the ports are formed.
  • the device according to the invention also makes it an easy matter to replace the seals in case of wear.
  • shutoff member in the shape of a wedge, but it is apparent that similar advantages can be obtained with a shutoff member of frustoconical shape or some other equivalent shape.
  • the inclined walls of the cavity of the body of the device in which the ports are formed will correspond in shape to the sealing surfaces of the shutoff member.
  • the sealing means are made from an elastomeric material and the inner part of the shutoff member is made from a basically rigid and selflubricating material, e.g. glass fiber-filled nylon®.
  • the sealing means are fitted with a flexible upper connection for the connection between said sealing means and said inner part, said flexible connection deforming when said sealing means slide relative to said inner part.
  • a slender framework that is to say a framework with elongate elements that readily deform elastically by bending.
  • the slender framework may also comprise a ring that engages in an annular neck integral with the inner part.
  • the sealing means may have flat surfaces that rest directly on the inclined walls in which the ports are formed.
  • the sealing means comprise for each port a corresponding annular outline in relief (of suitable shape, e.g. rectangular, square, circular or oval) which is compressed around the ports in the closed condition. This reduces the area of contact between the sealing means and the walls and therefore increases, for a given compressive stress, the specific pressure.
  • the inclined walls in which the ports are formed and the inclined sealing surfaces of the sealing means that come into contact with said walls present preferably the same inclination, because this gives an approximately equal compression over the whole of the sealing means, although there may be a slight difference of inclination, which can be compensated for by differentiated compression of the sealing means. It is also advantageous if the sliding surfaces on which the sealing means are in contact with the inner part of the shutoff member have the same inclination as the walls in which the fluid passage ports are situated and as the sealing surfaces.
  • the shutoff member is of a wedge shape.
  • the inclined sliding surfaces of the inner part may be joined to each other by side walls containing grooves in which corresponding arcuate joining sections between the sealing surfaces of said sealing means engage, said arcuate sections allowing said sealing surfaces to be moved apart.
  • the stop device 10 of the present invention comprises an essentially hollow body 12 to which there are transversely attached, by means of housings 14, which may e.g. be threaded, the two sections of pipe whose flow is to be stopped and interrupted. Connection may also be effected in other ways, for example by adhesive bonding or by fusion.
  • the housings 14 communicate via ports 16 formed in the inclined walls 18 of a cavity 20 inside the body 12.
  • the inclined walls 18 end in steps 22 that join up across a sunken part 24 of the cavity 20.
  • a partially internally threaded housing 26 in which may be engaged a cap part 72 which is externally threaded 74.
  • a cap part 72 On the top of the cap part 72 are shaped holes 76 for screwing it into the body 12 with a suitable tool.
  • O rings 78 maintain leaktlghtness between the cap part 72 and the body 12.
  • a central hole 28 in the cap part 72 can receive, in such a way that it can rotate freely without transiation, a central part 32 of a control member, bearing the general reference 30, having a knob portion 36 on top and a portion consisting of a threaded rod 34 at the bottom.
  • the threaded rod 34 of the control member 30 produces translational movement of the stopping and interrupting shutoff member, which has the general reference 41 and consists of both a movable inner part, hereinafter termed the rigid first wedge 40, and a sealing part or hollow second wedge 52 attached to the latter and forming the sealing means.
  • the movable inner first part or rigid wedge 40 also shown in perspective in Fig. 2, contains a threaded central hole 42 to take the threaded rod 34 of the control member 30 and to be moved translationally inside the cavity 20 of the body 12.
  • the rigid wedge 40 possesses two inclined surfaces 44 and two grooves 46 on its side walls.
  • the central hole 42 ends at the top in an outward edge 48 which lies over an annular neck 50.
  • the hollow second wedge 52 made of an elastomeric material and having the sealing function, is also shown in perspective in Fig. 3.
  • the hollow second wedge 52 essentially comprises two inclined surfaces 54 having outlines in relief 56 connected to lateral surfaces 58 with arcuate re-entrant sections 60 in the center.
  • the outlines in relief 56 form the sealing surfaces.
  • the surfaces 54, 58 of the hollow second wedge 52 are crowned by a slender framework with flexible sections 62, 64 connected to a circular ring 66.
  • the lateral surfaces 58 of the hollow second wedge 52 incorporate openings 68 beneath the arcuate sections 60. This configuration allows the inclined surfaces 54 of the hollow wedge 52 to move apart when the device 10 is in use, as explained later.
  • the device 10 in order to protect the control member 30 against infiltration of substances which would damage it, for example sand or mortar, the device 10 has a protective cover 80 with flexible rods 82, a smaller-diameter part 84 and a larger-diameter part 86.
  • the smaller-diameter part 84 protects the knob portion 36 of the control member 30, while the larger-diameter part 86 covers the hole in the wall where the device 10 is housed when the rods 82 are pushed into slots 88 formed in the body 12 at the sides of the cavity 20.
  • the rods 82 not only support the cover 80 and keep it connected to the body 12 of the device 10 but also serve as distance pieces to adjust the axial distance of the cover 80 from the wall so that the knob 36 is covered independently of the depth of the body 12 in the wall.
  • the visible surface of the protective cap 80 receives a chrome plating treatment.
  • the hollow wedge 52 in the assembled state of the device 10 the hollow wedge 52 is fitted on in such a way as to completely surround the walls of the rigid wedge 40 and remains connected to it because of the circular ring 66 which fits into the annular neck 50 where it is covered by the overlying outward edge 48.
  • the inclination of the walls 54 of the hollow wedge 52 is equal to the inclination of the walls 44 of the rigid wedge 40 and the arcuate sections 60 engage in its grooves 46.
  • the two wedges 40, 52 therefore move axially together, in the cavity 20 of the body 12, when the control member 30 is turned by means of the knob 36 from the open position shown in Fig. 4A to the closed position shown in Fig. 48. In the position of Fig.
  • the hollow wedge 52 has reached its limit point on the steps 22 of the cavity 20 of the body 12.
  • its lateral walls 54 with the outlines in relief 56 have already begun to stop the flow between the ports 16 as they bear against the inclined walls 18 of the cavity 20 in which the ports 16 are formed.
  • the inclination of the walls 18 relative to the direction of displacement (arrow f41) of the control member 30 and of the shutoff member 41 is approximately equal to the inclination of the sealing surfaces defined by the outlines in relief 56 and of the rigid inner wedge 40.
  • the openings 68 in the side walls 58 of the hollow wedge 52 allow it to dilate and the arcuate sections 60 expand inside the grooves 46 of the rigid wedge 40, following the movements of the inclined surfaces 54 of the hollow wedge 52 when these surfaces, stressed from within by the sliding movement of the rigid wedge 40 relative to the hollow wedge 52, are compressed from the inside out against the walls 18.
  • the rigid wedge 40 in its axial translational movement the rigid wedge 40 passes beyond the margin of the steps 22 of the cavity 20 and its bottom reaches the sunken part 24 of the cavity 20.
  • the rigid wedge 40 has axially compressed the flexible sections 62, 64 of the slender framework, causing them to bulge, and simultaneously has generated (through the inclined sliding surfaces 44 between rigld wedge 40 and hollow wedge 42) a powerful compression and therefore a repulsive compression which compresses the outlines 56 of the inclined surfaces 54 against the edges of the ports 16 of the cavity 20 of the body 12 in order to stop the flow.
  • the torsional force on the hollow wedge 52 is zero, and its service life will therefore be longer.
  • Figs. 4A and 4C also show the protective cover 80 in two different axial positions with respect to the body 12.
  • the distance between the axis of the ports 16 of the body 12 and the limit of the hole in the wall P which is to be covered by the larger-diameter part 86 of the cover 80 is at its maximum, while in Fig. 4C this distance is at its minimum.
  • This adjustment relative to the depth of the body 12 below the surface is permitted, as has been pointed out, by the ability of the flexible rods 82 of the cover 80 to be slid in and out of the slots 88 of the body 12.
  • Fig. 4B illustrates how the device 10 can be used even without the protective cover 80, e.g. where it is necessary to have the knob 36 of the control member 30 in view for rapid intervention.
  • the protective cover 80 can be fitted to flow stopping and interrupting devices of a different type to the device set forth above.
  • the seal is effected by two independent, superimposed parts, the inner part or rigid first wedge 40 and the sealing means or hollow wedge 52, which move as one down as far as the steps 22 of the cavity 20, while the continued translational movement of the rigid wedge 40 generates an axial compression on the hollow wedge 52, which is discharged and absorbed by the slender framework, and a force in the direction of the walls 18.
  • the bulging of the slender framework can be further encouraged when the thickness of its flexible sections 62, 64 is made less than the thickness of the outlines in relief 56 of the inclined walls 54 of the hollow second wedge 52,
  • the central part of the rigid wedge 40 transmits repulsive compressive forces to the sealing surfaces 54, and in particular to their outlines 56, frontally compressing them against the edges of the ports 16 and thus closing and sealing off the pipes 16.
  • the presence of the outlines in relief 56 allows the seal to be established without expanding and deforming the sealing surfaces 54, thus preventing them from pushing into the ports 16.
  • Figs. 5-7 show a modified embodiment of the device according to the invention. Parts that are identical to or correspond to those of the example of an embodiment shown in the previous Figs. 1-4 are labeled with the same reference numerals increased by 100.
  • the device bears the general reference 110. It has a generally hollow body 112 with threaded housings or connectors 114 for an admission pipe and a delivery pipe (not shown).
  • the housings 114 communicate with each other via ports 116 formed in inclined walls 118 in a cavity 120.
  • 122 denotes steps provided at the bottom of the inclined walls 118 and joined up by a sunken part 124 of the cavity 120.
  • the cavity 120 houses a movable shutoff member bearing the general reference 141 and comprising a movable first member or rigid wedge 140 (corresponding to the wedge 40) containing a central threaded hole 142 in which is engaged a threaded pin 134 of a control member 130 by which the shutoff member 141 is moved translationally within the cavity 120.
  • the rigid wedge 140 possesses two plane walls inclined to the axis of the threaded hole 142, one of which walls is visible in Fig. 5 and labeled 144. On its side walls the rigid wedge 140 has grooves 146 approximately parallel to the axis of the threaded hole 142.
  • the threaded central hole 142 ends at the top in an outward edge 148 above an annular neck 150.
  • the hollow wedge 152 possesses two inclined surfaces, one of which is visible in Fig. 5 and labeled 154. It is roughly rectangular and is surrounded by an outline in relief 156 which forms the seating surface around the corresponding port 116. A similar outline is provided on the opposite inclined surface (cp. Fig. 7), The outlines in relief 154 meet lateral surfaces 158 joined by arcuate sections 160.
  • the hollow second wedge 152 comprises on its top a slender framework with flexible sections 162, 164 connected by a circular ring 166.
  • the configuration of the elastomeric hollow wedge 152 and of the rigid wedge 140 is such as to permit relative movement along the direction of the central axis (axis of the threaded hole 142) between the two parts, for the objects already described above.
  • the hollow elastomeric wedge 152 is distinguished by the greater height of the circular ring 166 which, in the assembled state, projects above the outward edge 148 of the rigid wedge 140, as shown clearly in Fig. 7. This means that when the shutoff member 141 is lifted as high as it will go by turning the control member 130, the top surface of the circular ring 166 will abut against a disk at the end of the threaded portion 134 of the control member 130.
  • the rigid wedge 140 comprises, on its lateral surfaces, pairs of guiding protrusions 147 which, when the wedge is inside the space 120, engage with straight ribs 149 (cp, Fig. 5). In this way the shutoff member formed by the wedges 140 and 152 is guided by the ribs 149 as it is moved inside the cavity 120 for opening and closing purposes. Besides smoother operation when the shutoff member is being opened and closed, this arrangement reduces or eliminates the vibrations induced in the shutoff member 140, 152 by the flow of liquid when the device is in the open state.
  • the cavity 120 in the body 12 is closed at the top by a cap 172 having similar functions to those of the cap 72, but a different shape.
  • the cap 172 is fixed to the body 112 of the device by four screws 173 which, in the assembled state, pass through holes 175 (cp. Fig. 5) formed in the body 112 of the device, and engage in resilient plates 177 with two holes containing clips 177A into which the screws 173 are screwed and which also serve to prevent their coming unscrewed.
  • the plates 177 are housed in cavities 179 in corresponding external protrusions from the body 112.
  • Seats 181 are formed in the cap 172 to house the heads of the screws 177.
  • the seats 181 are bounded by cylindrical walls and internally are in the form of through holes each having an annular projection 181A (cp. top of Fig. 5) to retain the screws and prevent them dropping out accidentally.
  • the screws 173 include a portion of the shank that is of a smaller diameter, labeled 173A in Fig. 5.
  • a rectangular seal 185 which is compressed when the screws 173 are tightened down.
  • the closure system using the four screws 173 replaces the threaded portion 26 and the thread 74 of the cover 72 of the embodiment shown in Figs. 1-4.
  • the use of four screws with associated plates and clips means that it is possible to make the body 112 and cap 172 entirely of plastic, e.g. polypropylene, without the need to use metal inserts to form the threads, as would be appropriate in the case of the thread formed in the portion 26 of the previous embodiment.
  • the cap 172 has a central through hole 128 in which a cylindrical portion 132 of the control member 130 engages in such a way as to be free to rotate without translation.
  • the cylindrical portion 132 has an annular groove 132A into which an annular projection 172B of a flange portion 172A of the cap 172 fits with a snap action. In this way the control member 130 is retained axially in the cap 172.
  • Three further annular grooves 132B, 132C, 132D are formed in the cylindrical portion 132 of the control member 130 for three corresponding O rings 138A, 138B, 138C, the last of which also serves as a damping element between the control member 130 and the cap 172.
  • the cap 172 Also formed in the cap 172 are two openings 172C into which the rods 182, of a cover 180, similar to the flexible sections 82 of the cover 80 of the previous embodiment, are inserted.
  • the openings 172C contain flexible tabs 172D whose purpose is to retain the rods 182 of the cover 180 by friction.
  • the cover 180 comprises, as in the previous case, a smaller-diameter portion 184 and a larger-diameter portion 186.
  • the rods 182 are also inserted into the slots 188, equivalent to the slots 88, in the body 112.
